Vacation Recap {+ Marathon Training Update #2}

I’m so glad this week is a short week of work for me. Vacation was nice and relaxing and we were able to spend quite a bit of time outside. We went canoeing AND kayaking, and I also was able to get a great training run in on Tuesday morning with my brother (5 miles at an 8:27/mile average pace!). 🙂

Northern Wisconsin Vacation

The weather was really nice the whole time, the pics I took were of course when a cloud decided to cover the sun, but honestly…the weather was beautiful!

I also miss my family very much! Especially my sisters!

My youngest sister sent me a snapchat yesterday informing me of how much she misses me. Too cute for words!

Last Week’s Training

Marathon training last week went extremely well! I kept up a good pace and actually put in more miles than planned. I keep a running log and last week was one of my highest mileage weeks since the winter. I’m feeling good and have no injuries thus far! (fingers crossed!)

Monday – Rest

Tuesday – 4 miles (last mile consisted of hill sprint repeats)

Wednesday – 8 miles (comfortable pace)

Thursday – 4 miles

Friday – Rest

Saturday – 16 miles (long run, easier pace)

Sunday – 3 miles (recovery run)

Weekly Mileage- 35 miles

Last week was by far one of the biggest breakthroughs in my marathon training journey because I felt good and increased my mileage without injury. I was just really tired by the end of the week, but nothing a nap and snack every 2 hours won’t fix. 🙂

That’s all for today folks! I hope the end of your week treats you well. And as always, don’t forget to like and share my blog with all or your friends.
